Jet Photo Lab

The owner charges me 11.99 for an India Visa photo. US passport photos are on sale for 8.99. They are the same photos! He LIES to me and says «they are a little bit different.» Pathetic.

Pure Gold.
Been using these guys for over a decade now. If you’ve had to spend your own time doing the deed at the consulate — even when considering many others who perform the same service — these guys are the best.
Convenient, reliable, consistent.
(Did the 10 year thing this time around however, so shouldn’t have to use them for a while.)

Fast and efficient service without proper etiquette that most customer expect. If you want the China visa in one week and don’t mind the blunt attitude, this is where you get the job done.

The lady is socially challenged.
Also lies about their business being cash only. I told her there is a sign that says that over $ 20 I can use a credit card. Instead she took a couple of dollars off so I would pay cash.
She will get the job done but make you not want to go back.

Hi– I guess I can agree they can be expensive — traveling to China a lot — I have used them a lot.
BUT every time I have gone in there Frank has gotten it done as promised. Many times I needed expedited help– and he has always come through. When he is not there — I have had some rude or less than ideal service. But he is the man when it comes to getting Visas and Passport support with little hastle.

Had a very unpleasant experience. The owner is very very rude. Will never come back again.

Where is the 0 star option?
Owner is an asshole, hung up on me twice just asking him a simple question over the phone.
If you enjoy having your passport ripped out of your hands because they want you to pay them cash instead of a credit card, have I got the place for you!

Very expensive pictures!!!
Nice work, but really expensive, I pay 117 usd per 3 set of pictures for green card

Got my visa back today. 10 years no issues. The owner even helped me trouble shoot getting a business visa on my other passport. He did not rush the conversation either, and wrote down a few ideas I might want to try.
I also called him back to ask questions about the medical forms and other documentation I’ll need to get for my business visa prior to leaving the us (and he knew i would not be doing my business visa through him as I’d be getting it in Beijing). He still assisted me on the phone and did not rush me off, again taking his time to outline some wrong-​assumptions I’d made.
Really great service, I can say I 100% trust this guy’s opinion and service!

Got my China visa here several times. The lady isn’t very friendly but the man who works there is fine.
The photos in the wall are a bit strange and stuck in the 80’s.
Turn around is very quick though. Putting the paperwork in in Wednesday and got s rush on it with my visa and passport back on Friday before noon.

This is the place if you need passport stuff done or a visa procured for a China trip. No longer do you have to drive up to the City to wait in lines because Jet Photo Lab does it all.
My only ding to this establishment would be the fact that it’s CASH ONLY. If you are getting a visa for more than yourself, prepared to go to the bank beforehand because simply getting a visa to go to China for a US Citizen costs close to $ 200.
Otherwise, their website could indeed use some work but if you click around you can definitely find the forms you need.

Great! Got my China Tourist visa processed here. Would highly recommend over waiting in line in San Francisco. The whole process was fast and painless, and only cost me about $ 30 + photo costs over the actual cost at the consulate. They took passport photos for me for an extra charge. You can easily do your own though if you have time.
Their website is a bit confusing, but you can just fill out the normal application as best as you can, bring it to them, and they will fix any mistakes. You don’t really need anything besides hotel bookings or flight reservations for a tourist visa, so you can ignore the letter of invitation usually.
My visa and passport were waiting for me only 4 – 5 days later. Obviously, if you are in a rush, it will cost more, but if you aren’t, this is a great way to save time and effort while not costing too much more.

This agency messed up my visa application and gave me blatantly incorrect information. They told me that because I changed my name after I got married, I needed a special document for the name change. Except that they couldn’t tell me what this document is called or where I was supposed to get it. They said just google it! Of course, no such document exists. I went to the SF consulate myself with all the documentation I had and they approved it on the spot. So it seemed that this agency messed up my application, got it rejected, then made up excuses which sent me on wild goose chase.
Not only did they screw up my application, they then either gave me false information or outright lied about what I needed to get it fixed. They kept saying some vague thing about a «letter from the court», except they can’t tell me which court, what form I need to ask for. They tell me to google it, so I wasted hours of my time researching on the internet and calling the courthouse, INS, consulate, etc. WHen I finally gave up and drove up to the consulate, they approved it immediately and issued me a visa the same day.

**China Visa Issued in one week**
Super friendly and super fast. I got my one year China visa in a week for my emergency work trip to China and it went off without a hitch.
$ 249 for a one year visa
He took my photo in the studio so no rush to get my picture done.
Easy Peezy!
Highly recommend.

Got our schenghen visa photos in a snap in 2 mins… this was the only international visa service open on Sunday afternoon .most efficient service ever .the owner was very knowledgeable about requirements… we were also very impressed by his collection of artifacts.

The owner is a liar.
I took my China passport photo here and got 2 copies as agreed upon. I needed 4 photos so I asked him to print out 2 extras. He told us he would have to charge us double becausee his setup only prints two photos from every picture. He brought me back into his studio and made a big show of taking another photo. However I had not heard a sound of the camera and when I received the photos they were 4 copies of the exact same picture. He had no problem charging me for 4 photos.
Despite the convenience of being in my neighborhood I will never patronize this establishment again.

Came by the other day to get a couple non-​standard Passport photos. Upon arrival, the owner was on the phone and had no acknowledgement until he got off his personal cell phone…
After informing the owner what I was looking for, he ushered me into his studio, took a photo for 30 seconds and told me to wait while he attended to someone that just walked in.
The owners wife walked into the studio ~5 minutes later shocked that I was sitting in his studio. I informed the wife that the owner told me to wait.
She later called for me and my photos were ready!
$ 14.99 + tax for non-​standard photos. $ 20 or less is cash only.
…what an odd experience?!?
…the passport office called and declined my photos because the stamp that Jet Photo Lab used was illegible. …total waste of money.

I just returned from this place. All I wanted was a set of photos plus the soft copy. Either the owner guy behind the desk is unwilling to send the soft copy or he is an expert in US passport law (which I am sure he is not)
I ask for soft copies for the US passport and he says its against the law to mail a soft copy (ROFLMAO) for this purpose. Its ok for H1B apparently.
The vibe I got was entirely of poor service. Do not use these folks. Unless you want lessons in immigration photo laws (a new subsection defined in the constitution by Jet Photo Lab)

Review is strictly for their passport photo service only (BTW, cash only!)
Thanks to my fellow Unilocalers, I went into this location prepared to be greeted by efficient but unfriendly service, which is exactly what i got.
I was in and out with my passport photos within 10 minutes. But it’s true the boss lady has an arrogant attitude, she also talk down at the customers who have come in and inquired for her help on the visa application. She was advising them on what to do on their application and throwing in jabs and comments about their age etc. Knowing how complicated China visa process could take, I would recommend this other company i’m using for my China visa– look up Visa network in SF. Much much better service

Need a passport photo? Look no further and just come here.
Came here last week and got my passport photo quickly and painlessly. HAHA. The man who helped me was quick to take my photo and it came out OK. He was also helpful in filling out my passport renewal application. It was $ 9 for two photos.
Quick and easy and that how it should be for these passport photos.
